Cease-fire. No UFOs but a very bad crime (1,7,7)
I believe the answer is:
a serious offence
'cease-fire no ufos but a very bad crime' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'cease-fire no ufos but a very bad crime' is the wordplay.
'cease-fire no ufos' anagrams to 'A SERIOUS OFFENCE'.
But, I am unsure how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
